I tried again and can't seem to find what is holding the thing in. I removed all of the screws around the cluster but something is still holding it in. I feel a bit blind unscrewing stuff trying to get it out so if anyone has taken one out and can help out I would appreciate it. Thx. . .

Cant help ya with that one. There might be a bonding strap for grounding the dash pieces together....JUST go slow and dont jostle all the other stuff up in there. I know there is a shop manual available, but don't know if it covers this repair.. Eric

The speedo cable will hold it in, did you remove the cable from the back of the speedo head?

I did not remove the speedo cable. From the underside I can't easily see how I can even get up to the back of the cluster. . .

You should be able to just reach your hand up there and dissconect the cable. Or remove the cable from the tranny end and let the whole thing slide through the firewall.
